nO it does not mean tricking surfers. But rather than having stupid google or other search engine list your irrelevant stuff. Why would they list you then for irrelevant term if you didn't want to be listed?
I am trying to imply that irrelevant results are very bad and not productive after all and that they do not have to be shown up for certain terms. That's the SEs' fault and webmasters' as well. SEs' because their algos are too stupid to distinguish relevant from irrelevant content and webmasters' to actually show that content and thus gain a lot of traffic. It's of course better to optimize for 100K competition term that will bring you 10x traffic (for irrelevant term) than optimizing a site for 10M+ competition term that wil bring you the same amount of traffic for actual relevant term.
So after all, my point is why would you ever want to show surfers irrelevant content and having them being tricked at all. Surfers (well majority of them) are stupid when it comes to searching and stuff, so they will click to every link that somehow looks ok for them (the link they think they'll find quality inside), and what you do after this redirect them to target site, or serve them doorway pages....
Blackhat is blackhat, seo is not blackhat. It's just trying to have your site in top of results to actually get people visit it and then buy your product. SEO is not stiffing millions of kwds in doorway pages, and doing 'famous' sneaky redirects....it's blackhat.
Period!
